Get
Paid to Help People Look Fabulous
Imagine
having an exciting high-paying job showing people and companies
how to make a fabulous impression. Welcome to the world of image consulting!

"Image"
is the way other people see us. It influences whether people will agree
to our requests, hire us, and pay us the salary we want.
Image
consulting is a booming industry thanks in part to the popularity of television
shows such as What Not to Wear, Extreme Makeover, and Queer
Eye for the Straight Guy.
As
an image consultant, you can give people advice that will help them achieve
what they want - whether it is to get a new job, to make a good impression,
or simply to feel good about themselves. To help people look better,
you might choose to offer services such as:
-
Image
Analysis or Makeover Consulting (giving someone feedback on
the overall image they are projecting and helping them develop a new image)
-
Fashion
Styling or Wardrobe Consulting (reviewing someone's current
wardrobe to determine what should be discarded or purchased, coordinating
outfits, and closet organizing)
-
Makeup
Analysis (you can also consult on other specific aspects of physical
appearance such as: Colors, Skin Care, Hairstyle, etc.)
However,
image is more than physical appearance. In addition to how someone looks,
people also form impressions based on how that person talks and
behaves.
Therefore, as an image consultant, you might also consult with clients
about:
-
Vocal
Communications (such as voice, grammar, and vocabulary)
-
Non-verbal
communications (such as handshakes, posture, and eye contact)
-
Etiquette
(business
etiquette, social graces, dining)
In
addition to consulting with clients yourself, you can develop a network
of strategic partners to refer clients to, such as hair stylists,
makeup artists, dieticians, dentists, personal trainers, plastic surgeons,
and voice coaches.
As
an image consultant you may decide to assist anyone who wants image consulting
services, or choose to specialize in working with particular types
of clients, such as:
-
Women
who want a new look
-
Job-seekers
-
Corporate
executives
-
Beauty
pageant contestants
-
Lawyers
and their clients
-
Cancer
survivors
-
Television
personalities
-
Spouses
of recently promoted executives
-
Transgender
individuals
-
Politicians
-
Singles
seeking a partner
While
many individuals hire image consultants, you may also be hired by corporate
clients. For example, a company might hire you to help a new supervisor
communicate effectively with employees, or to coach
a senior executive to make a good impression during television interviews.
Image
consultants are also paid up to thousands of dollars a day to present
training programs (seminars or workshops) on topics related to image. Companies
may hire you to present seminars on topics such as: dressing professionally
(including dos and don'ts for casual Fridays), communication skills for new supervisors, and other
topics.

As
long as you have the desire, you can become an image consultant.
No special education or experience is necessary to break into this career
and succeed.
If
you would like to be paid to provide image consulting services, the FabJob
Guide to Become an Image Consultant is

and succeed in this rewarding career.
